Track: The Open Source Journey
Speakers: Deborah Bryant


At some point in time, you’re going to want to have that conversation. To explain open source to someone who doesn’t really care about it, but you’d like them to. Maybe they’ve been off the grid fire-spotting and have never heard of it. Maybe they know what it is but don’t see how it fits. It might be your boss. Or maybe it’s that last guy in procurement who won’t show up to meetings, the software manager comfy in his comfort zone, the local councilman who’s trying to stretch their IT budget after contract scandals have emptied the department, the CIO looking to collaborate with industry partners but lacks a framework. Opportunities abound.


In this walked-these-walks non-technical talk, Deb Bryant provides safety tips and strategies to help you influence and help others succeed on scales modest or wild. Assessing your own motivations; identifying motivators of others; dispelling common misunderstandings; tapping peer networks and other resources for help; practical advice in a range of scenarios useful in private and public sectors as well as academia are covered in this tour de challenging conversations.
